Song Lyrics

You know I drove home today, I saw the places I'd played
For hours in the sun, five on five, three on one
And the trees had all gone from the street with the school and the radio on
Replaced by arcades filled with people having fun
And just to see them they've got what they want
They've got a civic centre but best of the lot
You know what they've got?
Well they've got ambulance men in the main street
Well they've got ambulance men in the main street
Well they've got ambulance men in the main street
And you know you could win

Every once in a while disaster falls on the town in the sun
When they sit down waiting for rain to come
Still, there's a pub to be found on every corner in town
Where there's boys in the bar and there's girls in the lounge rooms with their mums
And just to see them, they've got what they want
They've got a sporting complex but best of the lot
You know what they've got?
Well they've got ambulance men in the main street
Well they've got ambulance men in the main street
Well they've got ambulance men in the main street
And you know you could win.

You know I drove home today, I saw the places I'd played
For hours in the sun, five on five, three on one
And the trees had all gone from the street with the school and the radio on
Replaced by arcades filled with people having fun
And just to see them they've got what they want
They've got a civic centre but best of the lot
You know what they've got?
Well they've got ambulance men in the main street
Well they've got ambulance men in the main street
Well they've got ambulance men in the main street
And you know you could win
